10th Annual Echo Florida
October 8-10, 2022
Disney’s Yacht & Beach Club Resort
Walt Disney World, Florida
Echo Florida is a comprehensive review of cardiovascular ultrasound, including dedicated sessions on coronary artery disease (including stress testing), valvular heart disease, heart failure, emerging technologies, complex congenital heart disease, and case-based demonstrations on the role of 2D and real-time 3D/4D echocardiography.
Course Learning Objectives
Upon completion of these sessions, participants will be better able to:
- Analyze and quantify systolic and diastolic function by echocardiography and understand the role of strain imaging.
- Identify indications for echocardiographic contrast agents.
- Better understand the findings of echocardiography in various forms of infective endocarditis.
- Quantify valvular regurgitation using PISA.
- Better understand the role of standard and advanced echo (3D echo, strain) in contemporary echocardiography.
- Better understand the selection process for patients with TAVR and the role of echocardiography in monitoring patients who have undergone TAVR.
- Recognize and assess the role of echocardiography in the deployment of percutaneous devices, such as appendage occlusion devices.
- Describe echocardiographic features of common complex congenital lesions found in adults.
- Explain normal and abnormal findings of prosthetic valve function.
- Understand the complementary nature of competing imaging technologies, such as MRI and CT.
- Describe echocardiographic features of hypertrophic and infiltrative myopathies.
Workshops – Optional Small Group Sessions
Small group workshops offer registered participants the opportunity to get one-on-one time with faculty in a hands-on learning experience. Workshops are included with registration and the total number of CME credits offered. Pre-registration is required for these workshops.
